only can use "Compiled Proto" as Type of Definition to Browse and Edit

[Webber]

Thank you for your great work.

But, I experienced an issue.
When trying build in sample pb, I only can use "Compiled Proto" as Type of Definition to Browse and Edit
When I use .proto format, the editor show message below.
You must enter a valid Proto File:
Cannot run program "protoc": CreateProcess error=2

What I do for this issue? or how could I conver my .proto to .protocomp?

My OS is W7x64
i tried both ProtocolBuffer_Editor_0.97l_Installer_pb_3.0beta.exe and ProtocolBuffer_Editor_0.92_pb_2.5.0a.jar

i found out that
for .proto,
i need steps below
1 unzip protoc-2.6.1-win32.zip for protoc.exe
2 config protoc command to the path of protoc.exe

for compiled proto
i need command below
protoc.exe --proto_path="D:\pb" --descriptor_set_out=msg.protocomp D:\pb\msg.proto

Thats correct; The protobufeditor needs to have protoc installed. The protoc.exe can either be on the path or you can update the command by:

• Edit primary menu
• Edit Options option at the bottom of the menu
• Select the ProtoBuf tab
• Enter the exact protoc command
